y application med March 12, 19518. serial No. aaneen To all 'a0/wm z' may concern y Be it known that I, DANIEL W. Loenen, 'a citizen of the United States, residing at Chr cago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Im-` provements `in Satchel-Handles, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to handles for travelingbags, grips, satchels and thelike, and

its obj ect is to provide a novel and improved attaching means for the handle which enables the handle to be readilyremoved when it is worn out, for replacement by anew one.`

\ The object stated is attained by means of a combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter described and claimed and in order that the same may be better understood, reference ishad to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification.

In the drawing, Figure 1 is an elevation of the handle; Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;

Fig. 3 is anelevation showing another emy `bodiment of the invention;

Fig. 4l is a section on the line el-flot Fig. 5 is an elevation showing still anw i other embodiment of the invention., and

Fig. 6 is asection on the line 6,-6 of Fig. 5.

Referring' specifically to the drawing 10,"

denotes a fragmentof a hand grip orthe like, provided-with a handle 11. rIhe ends v of this handle are fitted with end pieces 12 having their outer ends recessed asshown at 1 13 so that theymay be slipped over rings 14." which are permanently attached tothe grip,

and upon applying retaining membersto the end pieces for the rings, the handle is securely attached to thegrip.

copies or this patent may be @tained for from inve cents each. by addressing Washington, 1D. C.

Various forms be provided. The wone shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises a cap 15 which is internally threaded to screw on the reduced threaded end 16 of the part 12, and when said cap is in place it closes up the outer end of the re- "cess .13 and this prevents the part 12 from slipping off the ring 14.

To remove the handle 11 from the rings 14, it is necessary onlyto remove the caps 15 `the end pieces 12, which` leaves the outerendsof the recesses 13 open andallows said end pieces to be slipped olf the rings.

The handle can therefore be easily removed when itis worn out, and a new one put in its place.

Figs: 3 and si. show a retaining member V consisting of a removable screw 17 threaded through the recessed end of the part 12 to tached `to the hand grip on the outside thereof and seating in the recesses, and retaining of retaining members may opening `through the extremities thereof, rings atmembers for the rings extending across and closing the outer ends of the recesses, said members being detachably secured to the end pieces.

In testimony whereof I aliix my signature.
